The nucleus of an intestinal cell of a tadpole (baby frog) is transferred to an egg whose nucleus has been removed (nuclear transplantation); some of the eggs will develop into normal tadpoles. This demonstrates___________.
A) that intestinal cells are not differentiated
B) that frogs have large eggs
C) that differentiated cells have retained all of their genetic potential
D) that intestinal cells are embryonic stem cells



Answer :

Answer:

C)

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question this demonstrates that differentiated cells have retained all of their genetic potential. This can be said because only be retaining their full genetic potential would the eggs be able to develop into normal tadpoles, otherwise they would die out because they lack the requirements needed to develop.
